Most people have heard of and are familiar with the Venus flytrap. However, few people are aware that Venus flytraps may produce flowers.

The blooms are white with green veins that run across the petals. The blooms are unimpressive. Growers of Venus flytraps may still fertilise them and harvest their seeds.

Nude art was reborn as a result of renewed interest in the myths of ancient Rome.

Long-term usage of pharmaceuticals known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs, can also result in ulcers. Many of them are sold without a prescription. Examples include ibuprofen, naproxen, and aspirin (Excedrin, Aleve) (Motrin). These medications hinder the stomach's capacity to defend itself against acid and can result in an ulcer. Additionally, some NSAIDs are prescribed to treat illnesses like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and persistent back pain. It's crucial to talk to your doctor about potential side effects and measures to prevent ulcers if you must take one of these medications.

Do you want a large, muscular baby? Then formula is your ticket, according to a study published in the Journal of Proteome Research by UC Davis. Researchers discovered that when five formula-fed infant rhesus monkeys were compared to five breastfed monkeys, the former developed quicker and bigger than the latter. One probable explanation is that formula includes higher protein than breast milk: human milk contains 8% protein whereas rhesus monkey milk contains 11.6 percent. At 18%, formula outperforms both.

Each night more stars and constellations begin to appear in the eastern part of the sky at dusk before moving across and disappearing over the western horizon by dawn. Likewise, those constellations which we had been able to see low near the western horizon after sunset will vanish from our view only to be replaced by constellations that had been higher in the sky at sunset just a few weeks earlier. The constellations which appear in the east have a daily shift rate close to one degree per day, as completing a 360 degrees circular journey around the Sun in 365 days produces roughly that rate. One full year later, the stars subsequently return to the same position and rising time as the year before.
